Craig Morgan helps in on-stage proposal!

3 years ago

(WQIK) - Craig Morgan was in Jacksonville, Florida, Thursday, July 11, to do a free concert for the USO... well, he helped out the USO and helped a man propose to his girlfriend, all with a swollen left eye.

It all went down at the Jacksonville Landing in downtown Jacksonville, a popular spot for events. Craig was in town for the Jack Daniel Distillery and USO "Toast to the Troops" campaign, in which volunteers held a "Stuffing Party" to fill 7,500 Operation USO Care Packages for men and women serving overseas.

After a storm delayed the concert for about an hour, Craig finally took the stage. During his performance of "Love Loves a Long Night," Craig brought the couple up on stage, stopping the song long enough for the proposal. She said yes, the crowd went wild, and then Craig serenaded the newly-engaged couple with the rest of the song, while they danced on stage.

As for the eye.... Craig wore sunglasses during the show, to cover up the very swollen left eye due to a bee sting he got earlier in the week. Saving people... helping guys propose... performing with just one eye... all in a month's work for Craig Morgan!
